    it says 10% of inventory value
    shouldn’t it be 10% * 250 (500/2) ? πŸ™

    Ch in the formula is the cost of holding one unit for one year.

    The ‘inventory value’ of one unit is its purchase price, which is $25.
    Since the cost is 10% of inventory value, the cost of holding one unit for one year is 10% x $25.

    (250 is the average inventory – not its value. Also, Ch is the inventory cost for one unit, so the total cost will be 250 x (10% x $25))

    The exam is likely to cover the whole syllabus – there is not really any choice but to either watch all of the lectures (with the free course notes) in front of you, or alternatively to work through a study text.

    You have time to do that, but you must also leave time to practice exam standard questions from your Revision Kit – practice is vital.
